Download 1991: How P. V. Narasimha Rao Made History AudioBook Free
P. V. Narasimha Rao (or PV, as he was popularly known) has been widely praised for enabling the financial reforms that transformed the country in 1991. From vantage point of his long personal and professional relationship with the past perfect minister, best-selling writer Sanjaya Baru shows how PV's impact on the nation's fortunes proceeded to go way beyond the market. This book is an insider's account of the politics, economics and geopolitics that merged to make 1991 a turning point for India. The time preceding that calendar year was a difficult one for India: financially, due to the balance of payments turmoil; politically, with Rajiv Gandhi's politics of opportunism and cynicism taking the country to the brink; and internationally, with the collapse of the Soviet Union, its ally. It was in this period that the unheralded PV assumed authority of the Indian Country wide Congress, took charge of the central authorities, restored political steadiness, forced through significant financial reforms and steered India through the uncharted waters of your post-Cold Battle world. He also revolutionized nation-wide politics, and his own Congress get together, by charting a new political course, in so doing proving that there may be life beyond the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty. The year 1991 marked the end of an era and the beginning of another. It was the entire year that made PV. And it was the entire year PV made background.
